Resumen
Negative perceptions of anti-social behaviour have been shown by previous research to have harmful repercussions to both an individual‘s mental and physical health as well as the neighbourhood‘s long term prospects. To track such perceptions the Labour administration of 1997 to 2010 developed quantitative measures at both the national level (using the Crime Survey for England and Wales until recently known as the British Crime Survey) and at the Local Authority level via Place Surveys – a postal survey of residents in all Local Authorities. This thesis argues that the Place Surveys were method

Resumen
Scotland's tourist industry partly depends upon the quality of the Scottish landscape. However, despite demands for improved management of landscape resources, there is no standard method for the assessing landscape quality. This research takes a user-based approach to this problem and explores the use of Kelly's Personal Construct Theory (PCT) in eliciting underpinning attributes and dimensions of perception in a range of uses and across a range of Scottish landscapes. A novel aspect of the research is that it involves experimentation in mapping the resultant constructs through use of a Geogr

Resumen
This dissertation is a result of researches between 1996-2002. 1.351 Germans were interviewed in Germany and Norway. The researches focused on the motives of German tourists, their behaviour and perception. Very important is also the description of the Norwegian image. The image is old-fashioned and shows a country as it existed in den 1950s. The dissertation gives a survey about the history of tourism in Norway, reflects facts of the current tourism (number of visitors, accommodation,) and gives information about the different attractions. Since 1994 the number of German tourists is decreasin

Resumen
Disruptive behaviour problems in early childhood are found to be associated with many negative long-term outcomes, such as antisocial behaviour, adolescent delinquency, and substance abuse (Kellam, Werthamer-Larsson & Dolan (1991), as cited in Butler, 2005:1). Even after adolescence this arises, for, as Vogel (2008:16) states the 'frequency of behavioural problems or challenging behaviour among the youth of today often predicts the size of our future prison population'.

In Jabotabek Indonesia, the private sector has urbanised 16.6 thousand hectares of rural land far away from the built-up area of Jakarta, selling around twenty five thousand housing units annually.

New interception models were proposed based on optic acceleration cancellation (OAC) and the constant δ model significantly improved upon the performance of the LOT model.

Over the past two decades extensive research in experimental psychology, cognitive neuroscience, and virtual reality has provided evidence for the malleability of our brain's body representation. It has been shown that a person's body can be substituted by a life-sized artificial one, resulting in a perceptual illusion of body ownership over the fake body. Interestingly, several studies have shown that when people are virtually represented with a body different to their own, they exhibit behaviours associated with attributes pertaining to that body.

Resumen
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are currently widely used and of special interest due to their anti-microbial properties. They have been used extensively in commercial applications and might be the most worrying of the manufactured nanoparticles because of their inherent toxicity. In this work, stable citrate and PEG stabilized AgNPs of three different core size (7, 10 and 20nm) were synthesized, the stability of citrate capped NPs was assessed in ecotoxicology media (used for OECD for Daphnia magna toxicity testing) and the stability of 20nm NPs in environmentally relevant conditions (like prese

Resumen
Accurate perception and control of self-motion is vital for human survival. Most animals rely on vision for navigating through complex environments. In this thesis, I investigated how vision influence perception and guide self-motion from two aspects: (1) what visual information humans pick up from the environment to form their perception and guide their self-motion; (2) how the degeneration of the basal ganglia and cerebellum, the two largest subcortical nuclei connecting the visual and motor areas of the brain, affect the controller’s performance. Study 1 examined the condition unde

Resumen
The ultimate goal of seismology is to estimate the timing, magnitude and potential spatial extent of future seismic events along pre-existing faults. Based on the rate-state friction law, several theoretical physical earthquake models have been proposed towards this goal. Tectonic loading rate and frictional properties of faults are required in these models. Modern geodetic observations, e.g. GPS and InSAR, have provided unprecedented near-field observations following large earthquakes. In theory, according to the frictional rate and state asperity earthquake model, velocity-weakening regions
